How can I use AJAX with Django forms and the Fetch API?

You can use AJAX with Django forms by sending form data to your Django view using the Fetch API. First, create a form in your template, then use JavaScript to handle the form submission.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const form = document.getElementById('myForm');
form.addEventListener('submit', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    const formData = new FormData(form);
    fetch('/your-url/', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: formData,
    })
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data));
});

What do I need to do in my Django view?

In your Django view, you need to handle the POST request and return a JSON response. Here's a basic example:

def my_view(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = MyForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            # Process the data
            return JsonResponse({'success': True})
    return JsonResponse({'success': False})
